Other mistake: When Johnny and Roy are at the construction site with the injured father and son, Rampart is also on the line with two other squads - Squad 18, treating a pulmonary edema, and Squad 36, treating a bike accident. When Marco and Chet carry up the stokes basket, we hear the dispatcher saying, "Engine 21 and Squad 18, heart case...," even though Squad 18 is already tied up with the pulmonary edema.
Other mistake: When the dispatcher sends Squad 51 on the probable overdose run, the address given is 2267 West Hill, apt 6, but when Roy and Johnny are at the door, both entering and exiting, the house number above the stairs is 11044.
Other mistake: When the dispatcher drops tones for the structure fire, he calls on Station 51, Engine 27, Engine 32, and Truck 105. Once there, Captain Stanley tells the dispatcher to send a second alarm, then hear him call on Station 19, Truck 98, Truck 34, and Battalion 43. However, the only ones at the fire with 51 are Engine 9, Engine 17, Truck 17, and two men with helmets from 20, even though dispatch did not call on any of them, and of all the companies that were called to the fire, none were there, except for 51.
Other mistake: On the first run of the Ward LaFrance we hear the dispatcher say, "Wrecking yard fire," but subtitles read, "Working yard fire," and as soon as Engine 51 rolls up on scene Mike turns to Captain Stanley and asks, "Light water?" but subtitles read, "Do we got water?" Then we hear the dispatcher say, "Repair 3, call Station 8," but subtitles read "Return 3..." Subtitles from Universal Studios 2010 DVD.
Other mistake: At the structure fire, Roy and Johnny rescue 17's Captain Harmell, as seen on his helmet after he fell through the roof, but when Truck 17 sends its snorkel to the roof, 51's Captain Stanley and Captain Watson, whose helmet also shows 17, both assist with the rescue of the other Captain of 17.
Other mistake: On scene at the plane crash, just as Roy and John are about to head down to the aircraft we hear the dispatcher ask, "Foam 23, what is your location?" but the odd subtitles read, "Phone 23..." Subtitles from Universal Studios 2010 DVD.
Other mistake: After Battalion Chief tells Squad 51 to go to the elevator shaft, when Roy, Johnny and Jason enter the building, the DVD subtitles read that Captain Stanley says "Here, the elevator, it's jammed," when in fact it's the Battalion Chief who says that - Captain Stanley is not even with them. Additionally, Johnny asks, "Is somebody in here, Cap?" even though he's addressing the Battalion Chief, not Captain Stanley. Then it's Roy who asks for the oxygen, but subtitles read that Johnny asks for it.
Other mistake: When Squad 51 and the engine company arrive at the rock quarry, in the shot after John tells Jason to get the HT, just as Roy, Captain Stanley and Mike walk towards the right side of the screen, something drops down from the top of the screen, enough to cover the top left corner of the screen area, then gets pulled back up.
Heavyweight - S3-E5
Other mistake: When Chet is preparing the lasagna, then tells Johnny that he's preparing 'rutabaga delight' especially for him, the green container of parmesan cheese has tape covering the brand name, though it looks like it's the Kraft brand.
Other mistake: After Hector agrees to use Tractor 2 to cut a trail down to teenagers in the crashed car, Captain Stanley tells Roy and John to get their gear, then says, "Marco, Chet, give them a hand," but DVD subtitles read, "Mark it off, Chet..." Later when they're carrying the teens up, we hear the dispatcher say, "Squad 36, 10-7 to Rampart," but subtitles read "Squad 36, transport to Rampart," and when the dispatcher says, "Repair 2, Engine 163 is requesting tow truck," but subtitles read "Return 2..."
Other mistake: When John and Roy get back to the station, they head to the kitchen and John takes the hot pot of stew out of the oven with potholders, and when he quickly tries to lift the lid without the potholder, his pain makes it clear that it's burning hot, so he uses the mitt to lift the lid. There's a long metal serving spoon that was left in the stew, and John just lifts it up and starts serving the stew with no problem, even though that spoon should have been too hot to even touch.
Other mistake: At The Boat explosion incident, when Roy and Johnny climb aboard The Boat Johnny says, "We'll set up the Biophone here," but subtitles read "We'll set up the platform here." Subtitles from Universal Studios 2010 DVD.
Other mistake: After Roy and Johnny get back to the station, when Johnny takes the container of milk out of the fridge, we can see the black tape around it covering the brand name. There's another container in the fridge with red tape covering its brand name as well.
Other mistake: During the paint factory fire incident, when the Battalion Chief (Battalion 14) contacts LA dispatch over the HT he says, "LA, Battalion 14, this fire is contained," but the bizarre subtitles read "Calling Battalion 14..." Subtitles from Universal Studios 2010 DVD.
Other mistake: During the paint factory fire, when Engine 2 rolls up, we can see the red, large, rectangular vinyl material that is adhered to the front of the engine, with the company number printed on it. There's also vinyl material adhered to the top of the cab as well as the back of the engine with nothing on it, presumably covering the engine company's real number.
Other mistake: When Squad 51 is dispatched to the possible heart attack, while Chet’s at the base station responding to the dispatcher, the lightbar atop Squad 51 has nothing covering the chrome, but en route in the close up there's black tape covering much of the chrome trim.
Other mistake: During the fire at the paint factory, just after the barrels at the back of the pickup up truck explode, in the next shot we see Marco and Chet manning a hose. In this closeup, another fireman runs up to them and he's wearing a helmet with 51 on it, but it's obvious he's not one of 51's guys, plus Roy and John are with the burn victim and Mike's at the engine. The fact that it's a closeup and we can see perfectly well that he's not actually from 51 makes this too odd.
Other mistake: After Mr. Winthrop is brought to the ER, there is a closeup of his EKG monitor as it's picking up multiple PVCs, but when Brackett asks him about the tension in his life, the monitor seen behind him is showing a flat line. This happens once again after Roy and John leave the treatment room, just before they move him to CCU.
Other mistake: When Tommy's on the ledge, and Roy and John are on the aerial ladder, just as Tommy jumps off the ledge and Roy catches him, we can see the young actor happy and grinning as he's being caught by Kevin Tighe, but within the very serious storyline of a 7 year old boy jumping from a ledge, looking "empty, tired and giving up", this doesn't fit. Obviously the young actor thought it was great fun to do a stunt like that.
Other mistake: At the fire, while they're searching for the missing boy, Marco feels the partition for heat and shouts to Captain Stanley, "Hey, Cap! Cap!" but the subtitles read, "Hey, Chet! Chet!" Then after the boy's rescue, we hear the Battalion Chief say, "LA, this fire's contained. All copy. Out 1 hour," but subtitles read "Talk 1 hour." Subtitles from Universal Studios 2010 DVD.
